Answer Submitted: Your final submission will be graded when the time limit is reached. Tries 1/98 Previous Tries What is the Ksp value for XQ3?

Conc of Q at Equilibrium 2.1 * 10⁻³ mol/dm³

Ksp = 1.57 * 10⁻¹² mol/dm³

Explanation:

The Solubility of the Ionic compound is given by s

where s = 7 * 10⁻⁴ mol/dm³

solubility equation is given as follows

XQ₃ (s) ⇄ X³⁺ (aq) + 3Q⁻ (aq)

s s 3s

let the concentration of each be s

The concentration of Q = 3s

⇒ [Q] = 3 * 7 * 10⁻⁴ mol/dm³

⇒ [Q] = 2.1 * 10⁻³ mol/dm³

hence,

Ksp = [X³⁺][Q⁻]³

Ksp = [s][3s]³

Ksp = [7 * 10⁻⁴ ][2.1 * 10⁻³]³

Ksp = 1.57 * 10⁻¹² mol/dm³
